We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Verilog",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Kit eases convertor selection and development from
Analog Devices, which we summarised at the time by saying "The CED toolkit platform is claimed to be capable of shaving six to eight weeks off the convertor selection and design-in process".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Language link eases verification from
OneSpin Solutions: "OneSpin's 360 MV ensures that all functional errors in complex digital modules and intellectual property (IP) are detected".
In December 2007, we covered the news from SystemCrafter
concerning its SystemCrafter SC
- take a look at Automatic synthesis from SystemC to HDL
which says: "New version has improved SystemC coverage, and now allows synthesis to Verilog as well as VHDL".
Take a look also at the news release from DxO Labs, Silicon IP upgrades handset image processing,
as well as FPGA synthesis accepts VHDL and Verilog from Mentor Graphics UK,
and Software partnership aids FPGA simulation from Zuken.
